No River To Take Me Home Lyrics
The water's deep here
The less of me I show to you
The more I get to get me through
The stain of my eyes
Burnt deep within
Who will fall?
I asked not to know
I'm sealed away, you can't touch me now
Wheel and fire return to me
Let them come
Be my eyes, lead me on
Lift me out, tear me up, spark to fire
Whatever comes through me I will be
I had three signs thrown down on me
Fate frees my heart
Whatever comes through me I will be
Digging a hole so I can rest
No tears from me, No river to take me home
The stones in my way, reach to the core
Of a rising sun falling, through the wind to the soul
As my body leaves me
I cling to a tree in a dream
I'm screaming to you
Whatever comes through me I will be
The less of me I show to you
The more I get to get me through
Burnt deep within
Who will fall?
I asked not to know
Wheel and fire return to me
Be my eyes, lead me on
Lift me out, tear me up, spark to fire
Whatever comes through me I will be
I had three signs thrown down on me
Fate frees my heart
Whatever comes through me I will be
No tears from me, No river to take me home
The stones in my way, reach to the core
Of a rising sun falling, through the wind to the soul
I cling to a tree in a dream
I'm screaming to you
Whatever comes through me I will be

the line "The seeds in my way, roots to the core"
sounds more like "The stones in my way, reach to the core"
I'm not saying it would make better sense, but there's no way he's singing "seeds", it sounds more like an "sto-" sound. Listen to it a few times maybe, I could be wrong.
Actually I am saying it makes more sense:

Think about it.

Yep, you're absolutly right... i also heared it like you and was astonished to read here "the seeds in my way, roots to the core" doesnt make any sense at all to me.

I agree, Steve's totally singing "the stones in my way reach to the core"

I think this song is about death, funeral and afterlife, but I'm not sure (it's NEUROSIS, you can never be sure what's the song about). But some line pretty much fit in:
The stain of my eyes Burnt deep within Who will fall? I asked not to know
Digging a hole so I can rest No tears from no river to take me home
I'm sealed away, you can't touch me now
Let them come Be my eyes, lead me on Lift me out, tear me up, spark to fire Whatever comes through me I will be

Yeah, i think you're right, and i also think it is loosely based on the Tibetian Book of the Dead...
